65Important Information
Guidelines for Safe and
Efficient Use
Please read this information before
using your phone.
These instructions are intended for
your safety. Please follow these
guidelines. If the product has been
subject to any of the conditions listed
below or you have any doubt as to its proper
function make sure you have the product checked
by a certified service partner before charging
or using it. Failure to do so might entail a risk of
product malfunction or even a potential hazard
to your health.
Recommendations for safe use
of product (phone, battery, charger
and other accessories)
Always treat your product with care and keep it in
a clean and dust-free place.
Warning! May explode if disposed of in fire.
Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture
or humidity.
Do not expose your product to
extremely high or low temperatures.
Do not expose the battery to
temperatures above +140°F (+60°C).
Do not expose your product to open
flames or lit tobacco products.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product.
Do not paint your product.
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your
product. Only Sony Ericsson authorized personnel
should perform service.
Do not close your product with an object inserted
between keypad and display; this may damage
your product.
Do not use your product near medical
equipment without requesting
permission from your treating physician
or authorized medical staff.
Do not use your product when in,
or around aircraft, or areas showing
the sign “turn off two-way radio”.
Do not use your product in an
area where a potentially explosive
atmosphere exists.
Do not place your product or install
wireless equipment in the area above
an air bag in your car.
Caution: Cracked or broken displays may create
sharp edges or splinters that could be harmful upon
contact.
CHILDREN
KEEP OUT OF CHILDREN’S
REACH. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN
TO PLAY WITH YOUR PHONE OR ITS
ACCESSORIES. THEY COULD HURT
THEMSELVES OR OTHERS, OR COULD
ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE THE PHONE OR
ACCESSORY. YOUR PHONE OR ITS ACCESSORY
MAY CONTAIN SMALL PARTS THAT COULD
BECOME DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING
HAZARD.
Power supply (Charger)
Connect the AC power adapter only to designated
power sources as marked on the product. Make
sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be
subjected to damage or stress. To reduce risk
of electric shock, unplug the unit from any power
source before attempting to clean it. The AC power
adapter must not be used outdoors or in damp
areas. Never alter the cord or plug. If the plug does
not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
66 Important Information
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original chargers
intended for use with your phone. Other chargers
may not be designed to the same safety and
performance standards.
Battery
We recommend that you fully charge the
battery before you use your phone for the first
time. A new battery or one that has not been used
for a long time could have reduced capacity the
first few times it is used. The battery should only be
charged in temperatures between +41°F (+5°C) and
+113°F (+45°C).
Use only Sony Ericsson branded original batteries
intended for use with your phone. Using other
batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
Talk and standby times depend on several different
conditions such as signal strength, operating
temperature, application usage patterns, features
selected and voice or data transmissions when the
phone is being used.
Turn off your phone before removing the battery.
Do not put the battery into your mouth. Battery
electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed. Do not let
the metal contacts on the battery touch another
metal object. Doing this could short-circuit and
damage the battery. Use the battery for the
intended purpose only.
Personal medical devices
Phones may affect the operation of pacemakers
and other implanted equipment. Please avoid placing
the phone over the pacemaker, for example in your
breast pocket. When using the phone, use it at the ear
on the opposite side of the body to the pacemaker.
If a minimum distance of 6 inches (15 cm) is kept
between the phone and the pacemaker, the risk of
interference is limited. If you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place, immediately
turn off your phone. Contact your cardiologist for
more information.
For other medical devices, please consult your
physician and the manufacturer of the device.
Driving
Please check if local laws and regulations restrict
the use of phones while driving or require drivers
to use handsfree solutions. We recommend that
you use only Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions
intended for use with your product.
Please note that because of possible interference to
electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers
forbid the use of phones in their vehicles unless
a handsfree kit with an external antenna has been
installed.
Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call
if driving conditions so require.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality
is provided “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS”.
Sony Ericsson does not make any representation
or warranty as to the accuracy of such location
information. Use of location-based information by
the device may not be uninterrupted or error free
and may additionally be dependent on network
service availability. Please note that functionality
may be reduced or prevented in certain
environments such as building interiors or areas
adjacent to buildings. Caution: Do not use GPS
functionality in a manner which causes distraction
from driving.
Emergency calls
Phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. You should
therefore never rely solely upon any phone for essential
communications (for example medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas,
on all cellular networks, or when certain network
services and/or phone features are in use. Check
with your local service provider.
67Important Information
Antenna
This phone contains a built-in antenna. Use of
antenna devices not marketed by Sony Ericsson
specifically for this model could damage your
phone, reduce performance, and produce SAR
levels above the established limits (see below).
Efficient use
Hold your phone as you would any other phone.
Do not cover the top of the phone when it is in
use, as this affects call quality and may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than
needed, thus shortening talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter and
receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels
of radio frequency energy (also known as radio
waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations, for example
ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels
of radio wave exposure for the general population.
The levels include a safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health, and to account for any variations in
measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of radio frequency
energy absorbed by the body when using a phone.
The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual
SAR level of the phone while it is operating can be
well below this value. This is because the phone
is designed to use the minimum power required
to reach the network.
Variations in SAR below the radio frequency
exposure guidelines do not mean that there are
variations in safety. While there may be differences
in SAR levels among phones, all Sony Ericsson
phone models are designed to meet radio frequency
exposure guidelines.
For phones sold in the US, before a phone model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (that is, at the ear and worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model. For body-worn
operation, this phone has been tested and meets
FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset
is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body
without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or
when used with the original Sony Ericsson accessory
intended for this phone and worn on the body. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance with
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information about
this phone model is included with the material
accompanying this phone. This information can
also be found, together with more information
on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:
www.sonyericsson.com/health.
Accessible Solutions/Special Needs
For phones sold in the US, you can use your

Limited Warranty
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB,
Nya Vattentornet, SE-221 88 Lund, Sweden,
(Sony Ericsson) or its local affiliated company,
provides this Limited Warranty for your phone
and original accessory delivered with your
phone (hereinafter referred to as “Product”).
Should your Product need warranty service,
please return it to the dealer from whom it was
purchased, or contact your local Sony Ericsson
Call Center (national rates may apply) or visit
www.sonyericsson.com to get further information.
70 Important Information
Our warranty
Subject to the conditions of this Limited Warranty,
Sony Ericsson warrants this Product to be free
from defects in design, material and workmanship
at the time of its original purchase by a consumer.
This Limited Warranty will last for a period of one
(1) year as from the original date of purchase of the
Product.
What we will do
If, during the warranty period, this Product fails
to operate under normal use and service, due
to defects in design, materials or workmanship,
Sony Ericsson authorized distributors or service
partners, in the country* where you purchased
the Product, will, at their option, either repair
or replace the Product in accordance with the
terms and conditions stipulated herein.
Sony Ericsson and its service partners reserve the
right to charge a handling fee if a returned Product
is found not to be under warranty according to the
conditions below.
Please note that some of your personal settings,
downloads and other information may be lost when
your Sony Ericsson Product is repaired or replaced.
At present Sony Ericsson may be prevented by
applicable law, other regulation or technical
restrictions from making a backup copy of certain
downloads. Sony Ericsson does not take any
responsibility for any lost information of any kind
and will not reimburse you for any such loss.
You should always make backup copies of all the
information stored on your Sony Ericsson Product
such as downloads, calendar and contacts before
handing in your Sony Ericsson Product for repair or
replacement.
Conditions
1
This Limited Warranty is valid only if the original proof
of purchase for this Product issued by a Sony Ericsson
authorized dealer specifying the date of purchase and
serial number**, is presented with the Product to be
repaired or replaced. Sony Ericsson reserves the right
to refuse warranty service if this information has been
removed or changed after the original purchase of the
Product from the dealer.
2If Sony Ericsson repairs or replaces the Product,
the repair for the defect concerned, or the replaced
Product shall be warranted for the remaining time of
the original warranty period or for ninety (90) days
from the date of repair, whichever is longer. Repair
or replacement may involve the use of functionally
equivalent reconditioned units. Replaced parts
or components will become the property of
Sony Ericsson.
3This warranty does not cover any failure of the
Product due to normal tear and wear, or due to
misuse, including but not limited to use in other than
the normal and customary manner, in accordance
with the Sony Ericsson instructions for use and
maintenance of the Product. Nor does this warranty
cover any failure of the Product due to accident,
software or hardware modification or adjustment,
acts of God or damage resulting from liquid.
A rechargeable battery can be charged and
discharged more than a hundred times. However,
it will eventually wear out - this is not a defect and
corresponds to normal wear and tear. When the
talk-time or standby time is noticeably shorter, it is
time to replace your battery. Sony Ericsson
recommends that you use only batteries and
chargers approved by Sony Ericsson.
71Important Information
Minor variations in display brightness and color
may occur between the phones. There may be tiny
bright or dark dots on the display. These are called
defective pixels and occur when individual dots
have malfunctioned and can not be adjusted. Two
defective pixels are deemed acceptable.
Minor variations in camera image appearance may
occur between phones. This is nothing uncommon
and is not regarded as a defective camera module.
4Since the cellular system on which the Product is
to operate is provided by a carrier independent
from Sony Ericsson, Sony Ericsson will not be
responsible for the operation, availability, coverage,
services or range of that system.
5This warranty does not cover Product failures
caused by installations, modifications, or repair
or opening of the Product performed by a non-
Sony Ericsson authorized person.
6The warranty does not cover Product failures which
have been caused by use of accessories or other
peripheral devices which are not Sony Ericsson
branded original accessories intended for use with
the Product.
7Tampering with any of the seals on the Product will
void the warranty.
8THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES,
WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OTHER THAN
THIS PRINTED LIMITED WARRANTY. ALL
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. IN
NO EVENT SHALL SONY ERICSSON OR ITS
LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOST PROFITS OR COMMERCIAL LOSS;
TO THE FULL EXTENT THOSE DAMAGES CAN
BE DISCLAIMED BY LAW.
Some countries/states do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,
or limitation of the duration of implied warranties,
so the preceding limitations or exclusions may not
apply to you.
The warranty provided does not affect the
consumer’s statutory rights under applicable
legislation in force, nor the consumer’s rights against
the dealer arising from their sales / purchase contract.
* Geographical scope of the warranty
If you have purchased your Product in a
country member of the European Economic
Area (EEA) or in Switzerland or the Republic of
Turkey, and such Product was intended for sale
in the EEA or in Switzerland or in Turkey, you can
have your Product serviced in any EEA country
or in Switzerland or in Turkey, under the warranty
conditions prevailing in the country in which
you require servicing, provided that an identical
Product is sold in such country by an authorized
Sony Ericsson distributor. To find out if your
Product is sold in the country you are in, please
call the local Sony Ericsson Call Center. Please
observe that certain services may not be possible
elsewhere than in the country of original purchase,
for example due to the fact that your Product may
have an interior or exterior which is different from
equivalent models sold in other countries. Please
note in addition that it may sometimes not be
possible to repair SIM-locked Products.
** In some countries/regions additional information
(such as a valid warranty card) may be requested.
